The Toesin. claiming to advocate the la Dor cause, is publishing al the lies promul- gated by the old parties with view of dis organizing the labor army. It isa wolf in sheep's clothing, and the Wheclcrs will soon feel the fangs deep in their flesh, as they grind on under the yoke of n purse proud aristocracy, Arkansas Dispatch.
 AS villitier ot Democrats and Democratic papers the Dispatch has no superior. It's whole force of argument lies in it's appeals to the preiuaices of the people. We enter an unqualified denial of the above charge made against the Tocsin, and demand that Mir Ans lev state specifically wherein the Tossin has stated anything but true facts in regard to the Demo cratic party. Or wherein It has failed to do it's duty as represen- tative paper of tue Agricultural Wheel. We are ready for fair and honorable examination, and have no fears of suffering there by y.-Locksburg Tocsin.
 Yes. the Dispatch resorts to misrepresentation, and appeals to the preiudices of the people con- tinually, and villities and makes fun of Democratic papers. But the people are learning that its rawlings are only the effect of a disordered mind from an overdose of office seeking.

On the Lookout For a Cyclone--
Heavy storm, But No Damage.
Hundreds of Minneapolis people were
yesterday afternoon in momentary eXpecta-
ton of cyclone that would level the city
to the dust. The conditions were generally
favorable and the result was at least a
goodly sized storm. During the day the
heat was intense and altogether unusual
for the season. and the air held that sitting
Sultriness regarded as one of the precursors
of the deadly cyclone. Toward evening
the sky clouded and gaZers noted with ap-
prehension the ragged, wnd-torn edges of
the clouds and the prevalence of greenish
tinge that denotes unusual atmospheric dis
turbance. The huge masses of cloud were
hurled about, seeming to gather from every
direction under the impulse of powerful
winds, though the lower atmosphere was
entirely calm and woefully warm. Just
before the storm broke fierce southwest
erly wind sprung up and black
masses of cloud were carried over
the city, accompanying their passage with
deluge of rain. Remarkable funnel
shaped formations of clouds were seen at
this time in both the southwest and south
east, and anxious gazers were certain the
cyclone was at hand, but the rain storm
passed over, was met by chilly breeze
from the north, and repassed in the shape
of a fierce hailstorm. Stones ranging from
pea-size up to hickory nuts fell in quantity.
but. fortunately, without more serious
damage than the destruction of a few win
dows. The wind blew out large plate
window in Segelbaum's store, corner Nicollet
and Third, which was the only damage re-
ported. A stormy night followed, the high
electrical disturbance interfering very seri-
ously with the electric light systems.

Rev. Sam Smali's Sermon to the

Male Sex Exclusively. RsH
Not even the intensely warm weather
could prevent the assembling of large
audience yesterday afternoon at the Mime
apolis Exposition building, where Sam
Small delivered his sermon to men only.
The large audience sat through the heat in
that sitting atmosphere and listened in
tently to every word that fell from the lips
of the great revivalist.
trust you will give me your prayerful
attention this afternoon. The words which
! are scripturaly appropriate this afternoon
are found in Acts ill.,. Is; "And His name

| through faith in His name, hath made this man
strong, whom ye see and know; yea, the faith

| said On one occasion there came into the busy
mart of far eastern city, an aged, decrepit
| and travel-stained man, who was a stranger
| to them all. He wandered about liStlessly
| through the vast bazar, in the midst of the
| vast throng taking no heed of the vast stores
of merchandise, wealth or the wonderful
specimens of handcraft gathered there
from ali parts of the world. And his
appearance was so singular that it attracted
the attention of some Of the idlers in the
place. and they followed him curiously to see
what he might do in their presence. And as
| he wandered along he came in front of a
beoth, in which were hung gilded cages, and
| in these cages there were little song birds,
| captured in the far distance and brought
| there for sale. And as he looked
| upon them in their imprisonment he seemed
to recognize them as familiar to himself as

THE NATIONAL LEAGUE.
SpeculRti0ns Upon the PrObabI,
Showing of the Various Teams

SpeculntiOns Upon the Probable
Showing of the Various Teams.
The National league has not fairly
Strengthened out for its seasons work, but
there are certain things here and there
which show up the relative strength of the
teams. For instance, Detroit won all its
games from indianapolis, but it is plain
even to casual observer that the Wolver-
ines are far from strong in pitchers.
Baldwin is still there, and probably as
good as ever. but Getzein is mark for
heavy batters, Twitchell has lame arm,
Weidman is a mediocre pitcher, and the
club manager is trying to sell Knowlton.
Chicago is even worse off for pitchers. 1t has
ClarkSon still, and he is good one, but
Baldwin, Pyle and the rest are not good
twirlerS for the league. New York is just
about what it has been for some years
good for any place from second to sixth,
but not good enough to fly the pennant.
Philadelphia, Boston and Pittsburg are the
uncertain quantities. The first two are III
the fight with Detroit for the pennant, and
the latter will score victories over the best
clubs in the league with eXasperating fire.
quency. 1t has three of the best pitchers
in the world. Morris. Calvin and McCor-
mick can be counted on to fool batSmen
oftener probably than any other
trio now connected with any one
club. 1t is pretty certain the
Smoky City aggregation will this week
break the great record of the Detroits by
taking game from the Wolverines. In
deed, it would not surprise insiders to see
the Michiganders go down twice. On
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Boston
will play at Philadelphia, New York at
Washington, Chicago at indianapolis. and
Detroit at Pittsburg. The clubs stand thus:

Hod Carrier. Will Strike.

CHICAGO, May 1.-To-morrow about
s, 900 hod carriers and laborers will be idle
here They were ordered out this after
noon at special mass meeting held by the
Hod Carriers union. According to reports
received at the meeting. 102 out of 235 en-
ployers have granted the demands of'the
union. The 103 employers will be fur
nished with help, while all the others have
to hire non-union men or stop work. What
the hod carriers are demanding is an in
crease of 3 to cents on wages of % to 25
cents an hour. The meeting to-day was
attended by fully 1000 brawny carriers Of
the hod. Owing to the fact that each of
nearly dozen different nationalities had at
least 100 representative, presents the gather
ing was one of the most picturesque and
lively ever held in Chicago. 1t lasted i've
consecutive hours.

Speculations Upon the Several Teams
in the National League and
American Association.
The s'Belfast Sp1der'' Whips Willie
Clarke. of Philadelphia. in
Twenty Rounds.

The five games already played in the
Northwestern league indicate that the
teams are very evenly matched, and that
the team that flies the pennant at the sea-
sons end will have to work for it in every
game. st. PauPs aggregation left home
confident that it would win every game of
its series at Des Moines, but caught tartar
the first day by losing in hotly-contested
ten-inning match. This result, however,
was no doubt merely an accident, as Harry
Sage, who never did hit ball except by
chance, opened the tenth inning with safe
drive and scored on the batting of those
who followed him. 1t is not yet be-
lieved in st. Paul that the Des
Moines team is match for
the Sanity City sluggers, although
it must be confessed the Hawkeyes are
held in higher esteem here than. formerly.
The score at La Crosse was close, but it is
thought Minneapolis is too strong for the
Wisconsin infant. Duluth proved too much
for Oshkosh, but the impression is still
pretty general that the Zenith City team is
considerably weaker than that of Oshkosh.
Milwaukee is plainly too powerful for the
Eau Claire combination. In the face of
the developments of Saturday, most sport
ing people believe the great struggle will
be between Milwaukee, st. Paul and Osh-
kOSh.

the same way. Four large win
dows in the house of Adam Rowe
on Dakota avenue were shattered. The
cathedral windows were badly pelted in, and
about sixty or eighty panes were shivered
in ST. Louis church on Wabasha street,
near the capitol. The windows in the Benz
building near Rice park were also badly
shattered. Two chimneys were blown from
the house of NJ. Liddell on Ashland avenue.
Park avenue church, corner of Selby and
Mackubin, had four windows smashed. and
large proportion of the houses on st.
Anthony hill suffered the loss of several
smashed panes. Outhouses and small
frame structures in considerable numbers
were overturned and more or less damaged
by the wind. A new building which is
being erected by Louis Reinhard on Laurel
avenue was blown down, and the loss and
delay will be considerable.
MINOR LOSSES.
On Dayton's bluff the damage in broken
windows was considerable. In the Church
of the Sacred Heart, corner of Arcade and
Sixth street, siXty-tive panes of glass were
broken. In Officer McFetridge's house
several large window lights were broken,
and the windows in nearly all of the stores
on Payne avenue were demolished. At
the Panorama building, corner of st. Peter
and Sixth street, several large stones went
through the skylightS, eighty-one panes
being smashed. The loss OH this item will
be about $3.50. 1t was thought last night
that no damage had been done to the paint
ing.
Not whole window was left on the west
side of the First Methodist church, corner
of Summit avenue and Third street. Several
windows on the west side of the Rondo
street police station were broken. The
hackmen refused to drive across the bridge
after 10 o'clock on account of the heavy
winds. During the storm hack-driver was
struck on the head by one of the large hail
stones, in West st. Paul, and the rim of his
hat torn off. He was not seriously injured.
1t was reported that hack, containing a
lady and two small children, narrowly es-
capped serious injury, if not sudden death,
while passing over the Wabasha street
bridge, about 10 o'clock last night The
hack was lifted from the floor of the bridge
several times and dashed against the rail-
ing. 1t was difficult for pedestrians to hold
their footing on the bridge at times during
the evening, as the wind was blowing u
Gale. Several people who tried it, lost
heir head gear in the river.
The storm seemed to cover the entire
city in its sweep. and from east to west
the effects were about the same.

A Group OF Brilliant Conversation.
aIists Discus Them at the Ryan
Hotel.
1t was very poor converSationalist last
night who could not tell story OF hail
stones little larger than any that fell yes
terday. There were several large stones
found in st. Paul Yesterday and good
many more were heard from which varied
from pound in weight up. Il was over
i'll West st. Paul and saw one measured, :"
said one of group at the Ryan, THAT was
twelve inches Ill circumference. 1t weighed
trifle over a pound and a half. 1t was
the largest ever saw except one that fell
on farm where l happened to be last
summer. That weighed a pound and three
quarters"
Il saw one that was picked up down
in lower town this afternoon that weighed
two pounds" said one of the group. ''It
was fiat in shape and about the same diam
eter as an ordinary saucer. 1t wasn't
measured but it must have been at least
six inches in diameter the largest way. If
it had struck man it would have Drained
him on the spot"
"The largest one saw to-day" said a
third man, weighed two pounds and a
half. 1t was round almost and measured
twelve inches in circumference. 1t was of
solid ice."
AT this point one of the party went out to
the bar-room and borrowed piece of ice
from the ice chest. 1t was of irregular
shape and about eight inches in diameter.
He brought this up to the group, holding it
in his hands behind his back, and when
there was lull said, there's what's left of
one that was picked up out on Robert street
three hours ago. 1t has melted away con-
sderably, but l assure you it was the largest
hallstone l ever saw" The group were
ready for about anything in the shape of
hailstones. and one OF two were inclined to
swallow the story, when Joseph Henshaw,
who had been watching the proceedings,
dispelled the delusion. He said "Oh, rats;
